Nostalgic, yet refreshing. Born long after the War, I can see such different sentiments compared to today's. Wonder what we have become and where we are going with what cause? April 18, 2006

OK, the film from which this came is a bit muddled and wasn't great. (James Caan has a unique place in show biz for having played similar characters opposite two of moviedom's great movie musical divas -- Bette & Barbra -- in classic period pieces!)

But, love the movie or not, the soundtrack is terrific. I agree with the other comments that Bette was in great voice for this and the song selection is terrific. Bette is a classic entertainer. She doesn't have the MOST thrilling voice with the greatest range, but, wow, she always knows what to do with it and she's in good company with her contemporaries like Barbra and Liza (Bette being a few years younger).

She tells a story in her music and she conveys what the song is about in an uncanny manner. I've seen her live a few times (that's a real treat if you haven't done that) and happily, the same essence that comes across in-person and makes her such a stand out in that arena also comes across in her recordings. Enjoy! March 25, 2006

I already knew what the soundtrack would be like, as I had loved the (WWII era) songs from the movie.

It was as great as I remember. February 22, 2006

Great music, Bette is the best! However, they have a lot of spoken dialgue from the movie in the beginnings of a lot of songs, gets a little old after a while. I can't really use any of the songs for my Ipod at work because the talking confuses everyone. But overall a great album. February 19, 2006
